About this title

Synopsis

Our century's lost classic about American culture, the essential saving force of poetry, and how it can improve the quality of life in the United States

Observing that poetry is a natural part of our pastimes and rituals, Muriel Rukeyser explores the vital force of poetry and the arts in American culture. She opposes elitist attitudes and addresses Americans' fear of feeling, which contribute to a devaluation of poetry and the arts in the U.S. Multicultural and interdisciplinary, this collection of essays makes an irrefutable case for the centrality of poetry in American life.

About the Author

Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980) is the author of fifteen collections of poems, children's books, plays, translations, and several prose works, including The Life of Poetry and an Irish memoir, The Orgy.
